  6. Very ... I don´t know.
    I had a post on this ages ago. I still think it´s all about jealousy. And fear. From "us white people".
    But you see it with other "colors" of course, too.
    I am lucky, I was able to travel and meet different people of different "races", I live in a city where I met and meet many Afro-Americans, some 2+metres tall, and we always get along nicely.
    Why can´t we all?
    They are feared so much because they do not stop fighting for their rights.
    Here you say "the German Michel takes it all" - we do not dare to stand up against politics, rights etc, and those few who do, oh-oh.
    Great video.

    1. The U.S. South and Memphis in particular have a racist history that needs to be addressed. Tragic :(
